Frequently Asked Questions

A Global Distribution System (GDS) is a digital network connecting travel providers (hotels, airlines, car rentals) with travel agents and booking platforms. It acts as a central hub, offering real-time access to travel inventory, rates, and availability for booking travel arrangements.

Hotels list their room inventory and rates on a GDS. Travel agents and booking platforms can then access this information to search for hotels, compare options, and make reservations on behalf of their clients. This streamlines the booking process and increases hotel visibility to a wider audience.

Major players in the GDS industry include:

  1. Amadeus
  2. Worldspan
  3. Sabre
  4. Travelport (Galileo & Apollo)
  5. DHISCO

Joining a GDS offers several benefits for hotels, including:

  • Increased visibility to travel agents
  • Reach a wider audience, including corporate travelers
  • 24/7 online presence for bookings
  • Streamlined reservation process

GDS platforms provide a range of functionalities to manage travel inventory and bookings, including:

  • Real-time inventory and rate management
  • Centralized reservation system
  • Travel booking functionalities (flights, hotels, cars)
  • Integration with property management systems

Consider your hotel size, target market, and budget. GDS benefits large chains and hotels catering to corporate travel. Smaller hotels may find online travel agencies (OTAs) more cost-effective.

GDS is likely to evolve alongside travel trends. Integration with online booking platforms and mobile solutions will be crucial. While facing competition from online travel agencies, GDS will likely remain a key channel for travel professionals.
